Sharp 34L 1200W Inverter Microwave – Stainless Steel Review
The Sharp 34L 1200W Inverter Microwave is an excellent choice for households needing a spacious, reliable, and easy‑to‑use microwave. With its generous 34‑litre capacity, it easily handles large plates, casserole dishes, and family‑sized meals, making it ideal for busy homes. The inverter technology is a standout feature, delivering more even heating compared to traditional microwaves. Food reheats thoroughly without hot spots, and defrosting is noticeably gentler, helping to preserve texture and flavour. The 1200W power output means cooking and reheating are fast and efficient. Its stainless steel finish looks modern and premium, blending well into contemporary kitchens while also being easy to wipe clean. The control panel is straightforward and intuitive, with a clear display and a good range of auto‑cook and sensor settings that take the guesswork out of everyday use. Overall, the Sharp 34L Inverter Microwave offers strong performance, generous capacity, and sleek design at a reasonable price point. It’s a dependable option for anyone seeking a powerful microwave that delivers consistent results with minimal effort.

Great Product
Great how you can choose small seconds and not just in increments of 30 seconds.

Great microwave
Very happy with this microwave. It works so much better than our older one. Stainless steel finish matches our other appliances.

Attractive profile, easy to use microwave
Bought this model to replace an old one with similar functions. Very happy with it. It has an attractive look with a low profile and no knobs sticking out of it, which is important to me as it sits in a cavity below my bench line.

Sharp 34L Microwave - Fantastic product
Love my new Sharp 34L 1200W Inverter Microwave. Everything heats up evenly. Love being able to change the Wattage with a touch of a button. This replaced a flatbed microwave from a different brand which never heated anything evenly. The LED Light Display is very bright and easy to see. Good Job Sharp for producing a great appliance.

Microwave was excellent - Delivery was a nightmare
This Microwave oven is 5 Stars, but The GoodGuys use Team Global Express as their courier who are appalling, delivering my item to the completely wrong address where the occupants there opened my shipment. SO BEWARE IF YOU PURCHASE ONLINE BECAUSE THEY USE TEAM GLOBAL EXPRESS who are horrible (check out their Google reviews)

Fine but some damage
The unit works but came with some damage and the door does not sit squarely as a result. Disappointing.

Simply does the job and easy to use
This unit is the replacement for my old Sharp Microwave that last 10 years. Intuitive to use, and for someone like me in my 60s, it just works. Looks great, modern clean look for the kitchen and is tough. In my household we are using it multiple times a day and I get no complaints from the family

Be warned
Quite expensive compared to what I would normally buy. Not happy with this purchase at all. Let's start with when it's finished cooking the thing runs for another minute, even with the door open. It has condensation problems so you are constantly wiping it out. It's the worst microwave I have ever owned. No sensor reheat will not buy another sharp again.

At a glance
This 34L Sharp inverter microwave is a roomy, easy-to-use option for households that reheat, defrost and cook larger portions regularly. It suits families and busy kitchens with smart sensor cooking, memory presets and two-stage cooking for convenience. Its main strength is more even, consistent heating than basic microwaves. One limitation is that it is a countertop model, so it can take up more bench space than smaller units.
What it’s great for
- Everyday Reheating
- Family Meal Prep
- Defrosting
- Large Dinner Plates
- Quick Weeknight Cooking
Where it works best
- Family Kitchen
- Busy Household
- Shared Home
- Apartment Kitchen with Adequate Bench Space
Who it’s for
- Families

- Home Cooks
- Shared House Residents
Things to consider
Its 34L size is practical for bigger dishes, but it needs more counter space than compact microwaves and does not offer the specialised cooking modes found on some premium combination models.
Family suitability
High - large capacity, child lock and convenient presets suit regular family use
Student suitability
Moderate - simple controls are helpful, but the larger footprint may not suit smaller student kitchens
Ease of cleaning score
7/10 - touch controls and a turntable help, though stainless steel can show fingerprints
Counter space suitability
5/10 - 34L capacity is useful for bigger dishes, but it is less suitable for tight benchtops
Noise level vs category average
About average - no specific low-noise design is noted, but it should perform in line with typical countertop microwaves

Q: Does this Sharp microwave grill or bake as well?
A: No. Sharp R395EST is a microwave-only benchtop model, so it does not add grill, convection or oven-style baking. It suits reheating, defrosting and simple microwave cooking, but it will not brown, crisp or roast food.
Q: Will a full dinner plate fit inside comfortably?
A: Yes. The 34L cavity is sized for large dinner plates and family dishes, which is useful if smaller microwaves feel tight. Very wide platters or long rectangular containers can still be awkward because the food needs room to rotate.
Q: How is inverter heating different in everyday use?
A: Sharp R395EST uses steadier microwave power instead of basic on-off cycling, which helps with more even reheating and gentler defrosting. It is still a microwave, so pastry, battered foods and cheese toppings will not crisp like an oven finish.
Q: Can sensor cooking stop food from overcooking completely?
A: No. Smart sensor cooking can reduce guesswork by adjusting time and power for common foods, but it does not guarantee perfect results on every dish. Dense meals, mixed ingredients and very small portions can still need checking and stirring.
Q: Is this microwave suitable for a built-in cavity?
A: No. Sharp R395EST is a benchtop microwave, not a built-in or trim-kit model. It may sit in an open cavity if there is suitable space around it, but it should not be enclosed tightly or treated like a purpose-built integrated microwave.
Q: What can the Favourite Memory key actually save?
A: It saves your commonly used time and power combinations for quicker everyday heating. That is handy if you regularly reheat the same mug, bowl or plate, but it does not add extra cooking modes or make sensor programs more customisable.
Q: Can frozen meals be defrosted and cooked in sequence?
A: Yes. Sharp R395EST can run a defrost stage followed by a cooking stage in the same program, which is useful for foods that need both steps. You still need to choose settings that suit the dish, container and starting temperature.
